Contrary to popular belief, we are not all-knowing-all-seeing magical beings!

If you want help you're going to have to provide lots of info. Like what is your hardware, what is your operating system, what version of GZDoom/LZDoom/whatever you're using, what mods you're loading, how you're loading it, what you've already tried for fixing the problem, and anything else that is even remotely relevant to the problem.

We can't magically figure out what it is if you're going to be vague, and if we feel like you're just wasting our time with guessing games we will act like that's what you're really doing and won't help you.

how to open mapmods with gameplay mods

Post by Shroomie »

so i *really* like treasure tech, and i want to play it with some map mods! but, i dont really know how. i've tried it with myhouse, as well as exomoon, on top of others, but the 'new game' option just sends me to hell on earth. the same thing happens when i try to load them with *only* precise crosshair.

I personally use a launcher to load multiple mods at once.

This launcher works on Mac: https://github.com/FreaKzero/ssgl-doom- ... tag/v1.1.1

Alternatively, you launch GZDoom via the commandline. Assuming you put it in /Applications, you'd do /Applications/GZDoom.app/Contents/MacOS/gzdoom -file map.wad mod.pk3 (you can even make bash scripts to launch various profiles for you) :)

I also have my own launcher written in Electron so that it runs on all platforms (yes even that one), but it's not finished yet; I'd have to walk you through some manual setup things, and there's features that don't work yet and such.

nope! i just forgot the bit at the end reading, `/Contents/MacOS/gzdoom`, i put my file somewhere else and couldn't copy and paste the original command, missing that last bit. Thank you!
